I'm surprised they were not more 'inclusive' of a restaurant with a good Scottish surname.

Did the McDonalds sell cake to gay people ?

Yield would be the Give Way sign of the Republic. Hence Unionists would require UK signs.There were no towns in Ireland except for those founded by the Vikings (Cork, Limerick, Waterford, Wexford, Dublin). And then the Anglo-Normans. An Irish clan the Deira or something similar lived in the Derry area.These people were either cleared or subsumed by the settlement/ plantation set up in the 17th Century and paid for by London Merchants - hence Derry/Londonderry.Much trouble since - Lundy and Bloody Sunday just a couple of examples. A chequered past still not forgotten.

Appending ‘London’ to the name was a deliberately calculated insult to the oppressed. And continues to cause friction, and rightly so.

Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Sounds like you have Irish relations. The London came from the fact that the City of Derry was built with money entirely from the London Corporation. Typically British Crown did not want to pay anything. There was no Derry at all before that - there were no Irish towns as such. The Derry comes from the name of the Gaelic people who lived in that area.Most of them got better tenancy deals with the new settlement and converted to the English renting system and stayed there. The plantation actually consisted of nearly 50/50 English and Irish.All inconvenient facts for those wishing to push this agenda.

It shows you how much the republic have fallen when it's the unionists who are the socially conservative ones.

That vote on abolition was something else.....all those feminists dancing and celebrating their new gained right to officially end life.

Not really, the Presbyterians have always railed at Irish 'immorality'. Feminism was genuinely required in Ireland. A woman died in Galway due to the inability of doctors to terminate the foetus. That was very sad. It was really not long ago that women were sent to Magdalene laundries for being single mothers. The last ones closed in the nineties.There was no divorce until the eighties, there was no rape for a spouse. Until the late Seventies married women had to give up working.Being pro-choice was not really being pro-abortion.
